bobojuice Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 I've offered people before, but nobody has taken me up on it. I actually got them for free through work. Quote
LadyInWhite[TK] Posted August 16, 2012 Author Report Posted August 16, 2012 I'll take them - can grab next week. PM-ing you also. Thank you!!! Ā Let me get my dang sniper plate fix photo and cross my fingers Mattias will let me pass before I get there! Quote
LadyInWhite[TK] Posted August 16, 2012 Author Report Posted August 16, 2012 SEE, IT'S CROOKED. But I guess Stormtroopers are supposed to be a little bit WONKY anyway, huh? Ā Ā Ā Ā ANYTHING ELSE? Quote
Dr.Senf Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 That looks soooo much better!!! Even when its crooked a bit. The first attempt could be seen from miles away, now most of the people wont notice. Split rivets sortet well done. Now you just have to become friend with the ugly looking tubestripetemplates (cause they have to look like this : ) And you re sortet!! Good work!! Quote
TK5492[TK] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Well at least it's on line now, Ingird. I couldn't do it though. I would have had to get a new plate. I am so OCD about that thing, if those two little raised bumps don't line up to my cover strip... Ā Ā Also, can you send me that 'First Grade Success' book in the background? I need to brush up on my math... Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Loving the sniper knee. Looks a lot better now. Well done! Quote
bobojuice Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 I'll take them - can grab next week. PM-ing you also. Thank you!!! Ā Ā How many do you want? I'll make sure to put them somewhere, but send me a PM anyway as a reminder. Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 She'll need 7 at least. 6 for the side and 1 for the crotch. Preferably brass. Quote
LadyInWhite[TK] Posted August 16, 2012 Author Report Posted August 16, 2012 People shouldn't be looking at my crotch. Ā PM incoming, I spaced out last night. I will have to replace those after CVI obviously but I'm still going to look awesome with or without the "award" and that's really what it's all about. Ā Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Well, I don't want to rain on your parade either. I'll be looking forward to the upgraded rivets. In the meantime, enjoy your award. Ā Great work Ingrid! Quote
Dr.Senf Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Woooohoooo! Now Go out and enjoy your earned stars!!! Ā Quote
Dr.Senf Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Woooohoooo! Now Go out and enjoy your earned stars!!! But still, we wanna see those changes ; ) At least i want . Lol Quote
bobojuice Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 She'll need 7 at least. 6 for the side and 1 for the crotch. Preferably brass. Ā I know how much she needs, just not sure how much she wants. Also, it should be noted that these are in fact NOT brass. I think the brass ones were something like 10 times as expensive. Ā Let me know if you still want them. Quote
Boltstrooper[TK] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Congratulations, Ingrid! Great to have a fellow Centurion in the SoCal Garrison. Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 if ĆĀ£2 + shipping that I pay for my brass rivets are 10x more expensive than otherwise then you must have a hell of a deal at work. Quote
bobojuice Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 They were a package of 100 plus washers. The brass ones were around 20 bucks and the nickel plated were just a few dollars. Quote
matt black Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Well done Ingrid. Looking fantastic Quote
Nassik Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Congratulations Ingrid! Welcome to the ranks of the Centurion! Ā Now grab your maroon beret and report to C VI. Quote
Pickles[TK] Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 Way to go Ingrid!!!! Ā *highfive!!* Ā You look amazing Quote
LadyInWhite[TK] Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Posted August 17, 2012 WOOHOO! Thanks! I promise to make FISD proud by continuing to upgrade beyond the requirements, keep it looking good, and shine like Alderaan mid-explosion. All I want is to represent my favorite people in the world's best detachment! Ā As for that maroon beret, where do I sign up!? It might look good with my staff officer uniform, since I'll be posing as an Imperial Stormtrooper Recruitment Officer. (I made that up.) Quote
Nassik Posted August 17, 2012 Report Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) The maroon beret is commonly an Airborne beret. eBay is full of them. You may find one in a military surplus store. Ā The FISD tradition is to sew one of the Detachment beret flashes (patch) over the left eye on the front of the beret. Ā Like this: Centurion beret Ā Centurion beret Ā EIB beret Ā And admittedly, I had a similar idea of wearing my beret with my black staff (stormtrooper) officer uniform.
